How this estimate works
A statistical model, refit weekly across the in-stock catalog, estimates what a coffee with these listed attributes typically sells for per ounce. Each multiplier compares one trait against the average lot in this market; the roaster line covers brand and sourcing together, which this model cannot separate. Bag size is shown separately, priced at the rate observed across sizes of the same coffee, because it says nothing about the coffee itself. The distribution counts every in-stock listing in the comparison group, with at least 15 listings from three roasters and no roaster supplying more than 60% of it. Decaf, blends, variety segments, processing families and bag formats stay separate. Origin, roast and selling currency can broaden as the group label indicates. Prices are converted to USD per ounce; shipping and differences in tax treatment are not adjusted. The model reads listed attributes only: the quality of the specific lot in the bag is not observable, so a price above the typical band is not evidence of overpricing.
Some listing details are missing or have limited model coverage, so the typical band shown is wider than usual.

Cherrybook Index (CBI)
Evidence-of-quality score, not a cup score. Methodology
68
Noted
Preliminary
Confidence3 of 7 signals on file
Score is partially shrunk toward a neutral 50; read directionally until more source families land.
How confidence affects the score
Coverage measures signal availability, not cup quality. This coffee has 38% of the signal universe on file. Missing sources are dropped, remaining weights are renormalized, and the result is shrunk toward a neutral 50 baseline by 5% so one thin signal cannot carry the score on its own.
The math on file: renormalized base 67.1 shrunk to 66.3 + bonuses = 68.

“I was searching for a decaf that does not use chemical substances when I I found the Columbian Sugarcane Decaf. I know there's swiss water decafs out there. However, I feel this sugarcane decaf, using the naturally occurring chemical in sugarcane to remove nearly all caffeine, takes it up a notch. I'm neither a coffee snob nor aficionado nor...”

How ratings count toward the Index
To count toward Cherrybook Index, an aggregate must come from a supported source, match this product, include at least 5 ratings, and have been refreshed within 90 days. Its weight is 12% for 5–24 ratings, 15% for 25–99, or 18% for 100 or more. Higher tiers require another base signal; a ratings-only lot stays at 12%.

One thread author expresses curiosity about Portrait roasters and mentions a blend with Rwandan and Colombian coffees described as an experimental natural and washed process with green apple, strawberry, and brown sugar tasting notes. Another thread author praises a washed coffee from Rwanda roasted by Portrait, but expresses mixed-to-negative feedback on a natural Paraineima from Finca La Union in Honduras, finding it too funky, amorphously fruity, muddled, and too roasty for their preferences.

I sung the praises of a washed coffee from Rwanda that was roasted by Portrait last week. Unfortunately, I cannot heap the same praise on a natural Paraineima from Finca La Union in Honduras that was also roasted by Portrait. It is funky and amorphously fruity, too muddled for me to pick out any particular fruit tastin
